Bandai Namco Music Live Inc., formerly Bandai Namco Arts, is a Japanese company formed in 1983 as AE Planning Inc. The company was rebranded to Bandai Namco Arts in February 2018 by the merger of Bandai Visual and its subsidiary Lantis as part of a major group restructuring of its parent company, Bandai Namco Holdings. The company was responsible for anime production and distribution, and music production and distribution.

In 2022, the anime division was spun-off to Bandai Namco Filmworks and the company rebranded itself to Bandai Namco Music Live, solely focusing on music production and artist management.
